You can see why McCombs might have deleted it. You can also see why she wants to cultivate friendships with women, because, after all, she's planning to kill all men. Hard to cultivate friendships with the dead.

This isn't McCombs first foray into misandry. She has written about how raising her son gives her "sweat-soaked, sit-straight-up-in-bed feminist nightmares" because she "can imagine a future in which my own spawn makes some woman feel as voiceless as the boys in my high school once did, a world in which he blithely argues against the existence of male privilege and shit-talks the latest all-female remake on Twitter."

Announcing you wish to kill 50 percent of the world's population is not a joke any more than announcing you'd like to rape 50 percent of the world's population. If she has a problem with a particular man who treated her poorly, then by all means she should speak out. But this behavior steps over the line.

I have reached out to HuffPost and asked them for a statement regarding Ms. McCombs. If they respond, I will certainly update this post. Hopefully they will say their New Year's Resolution is to remove sexist editors from their staff.

We absolutely should not tolerate this type of behavior. You should not tolerate this in your business either.
